The objective of the project was to simulate real-world clinical procedures by integrating multi-tissue controls into student education competencies for kidney biopsy staining protocols. Students participated in the investigation, each receiving four pieces of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue: kidney, liver, gastrointestinal tract (GI), and tonsil. The tissues served as controls to validate st
